Many Tipperary ETB courses are provided for free, but some courses have fees or charges for materials, or both. Read the information below for help with your situation.

Allowances and grants

You may be eligible for financial assistance, for example, an allowance or grant. This depends on the type of course that you are enrolled in. Other allowances that you may be eligible for include: 

  • Travel 
  • Meals 
  • Accommodation allowances   

Talk to your teacher or your course coordinator if you think you may qualify for financial assistance, SUSI or weekly allowances.   

Tipperary ETB pays all allowances and grants electronically, so you must provide bank account details to receive payment. 

Childcare

Childcare places may be available through the National Childcare Scheme (NCS). If you think that you may be entitled to childcare, please visit the website below:
